Legendary Weapons

Listed here are weapons that have been blessed with powerful, deific magic. These weapons are not only Supernatural Weapons but they are also Legendary, meaning they are capable of killing deities. Due to the power possessed by these weapons, they are meant more as plot devices rather than a standard weapon a player can find and use. If they do find one of these weapons, often it is an adventure in and of itself.

Legendary Weapons vs. Supernatural Weapons: All legendary weapons are supernatural, but not all supernatural weapons are legendary. Supernatural weapons are weapons utilized by angels, demons, and other powerful entities who often fight each other but do not bother the mortal realm. These weapons also are capable of harming deities, but not killing them. Deities "slain" by supernatural weapons return to life eventually, usually by the will of their followers bringing them back. In order to well and truly kill a deity, a legendary weapon must be used - only then will they succumb to these grievous wounds and truly die.

Legendary weapons are created by master craftsmen who have achieved such a deep and intricate understanding of crafting that the only step left for them is to create a weapon worthy of killing gods. These craftsmen usually appear once every century, and often hide their talent from prying eyes while they create such weaponry, for if other mortals or deities found out, there would be a scramble to find the individual and either kill them or request access to their services. Some of these craftsmen devote their talents to a single deity, crafting the weaponry and presenting to a deity as an offering, a sign of unyielding trust and reverence in which the craftsmen forges a blade which could very well end the god or goddess' life, but instead chooses to bestow the weapon to them. These rarer 'aligned craftsmen' are secluded in temples of worship for their deity, safely kept away from those who may be looking for them.
